The Canadian branch of the D'Alton family began with the immigration of John's father, Edward Patrick, from South Africa in 1927 on the Canadian Pacific ship The Empress of France. The D'Alton name is a Norman derivation and the family had lands in Ireland where John's father was born. Pat, at first settled in Southwestern Ontario before moving to Noranda with his bride, Helen Wingham. Connections to old Ontario families are through Helen and John's wife, Lynn. Please contact the owner of this site if you can help to find these connections. I have just started this site and many of the names are taken from old photographs that contain only first or last names (or the word "me"!)This site is very much under-construction so if you spot some errors, please e-mail me.
